This past month was full of new beginnings. As the new team leader of W.O.W., I entered a new season on the race. I was filled with an infectious joy and eagerness to get to know my new teammates. We arrived in Kitale, Kenya with 5 whole weeks to enjoy before debreif. Talk about a long month…
So, I bet you are wondering where I am right now…
Well… I am in Mukono, Uganda. Somehow I neglected to blog once about my actual ministry this past month. Because of this, I decided to make a photoblog dating from our arrival in Kenya to the end of our time in Kitale with New Life Trans-Nzoia Ministry.
Enjoy!

Pastor Moses Mwamalwa and his wife Roselyn are incredible…we nicknamed them Papa and Mama Bear!
